Mysterious Man in Black Robes

  "That's what I gathered from the supermarket, everything you need is in the warehouse."

  "Oh, your personal space is really too against the heavens, when will you let Lao Da and them come in to enjoy it?"

  "Didn't you say not to tell others?"

  "Laoda and them are not others, they are our companions, why can't we tell them?"

  "I'm afraid they're not mentally prepared, if we tell them, I don't know what actions they'll take, can we not tell them for now?"

  Jin Yan thought for a moment, "Alright, I'll tell them when the time is right."

  "Good, you go take a bath."

  Jing Ruan went up to the second floor, and Zixiao Xuan went to the warehouse to get men's clothes. When she got there, she saw a box of weapons in the corner that had just been brought in, still dripping with water. What a mess! She had forgotten to move them out into the open to dry in the sun.

  Then with a move of his mind, boxes and boxes of weapons appeared on the empty land by the brook, and with another move of his mind, all the weapons in the boxes were taken out and neatly arranged on the wide empty land.

  "Alright! Zixiaoxuan has finished everything, taken the men's clothes and her own clothes, and also took two large towels. She went upstairs to put the men's clothes at the bathroom door. 'A Ran, I've put the clothes here.'"

  Upon hearing Jin Yan's response, Zi Xiao Xuan went downstairs to the kitchen to prepare vegetables and seasonings for the barbecue. She also prepared the necessary tools and placed them on the grass by the small stream.

  Jin Yan finished washing up and went downstairs. She met Zi Xiao Xuan who was just about to go upstairs, and said: "I'll wait for you outside."

  "Okay."

  Azusa Kōshū went up to the second floor bathroom, finished bathing, and came out. She closed the door properly, took the essentials for hot springs with her, and headed up the mountain with Jinlin.

  ……

  About a kilometer away from C Town, there is a small hill, facing the direction of C Town that has long been submerged in the lake formed by the flood. Two men in black robes stood on the hill, with their hoods covering most of their faces, leaving only shadows visible. Under the shadows was a pair of eyes gleaming with cold light, and those eyes didn't seem to be human!

  "Did you feel it?"

  A crisp and clear female voice came from her throat, but the language was neither Chinese nor any other language in the world.

  "Hmm... The aura has been getting stronger lately, it seems like it's about to awaken."

  A hoarse voice with a low male tone, revealing a gloomy and ruthless atmosphere.

  "What's going to happen then? If that person wakes up, we won't be able to find the other half of the young master's soul."

  "Hmph, there's always a way, you find out who owns the breath and then kill them!"

  "Alright, I'll take care of it. The other half of your soul is now in your hands."

  "Alright..."

  The man in black robes looked up at the huge magic array in the sky, with a giant door suspended above it. "Hurry up, you must complete it within three months!"

  "Got it."

  As soon as the words fell, the small hill was deserted, leaving only a gust of wind blowing by, swirling up dry leaves and dancing.

  Three days later

  The muddy road leading to C town has a cross-country vehicle driving with difficulty.

  The four people sitting in the off-road vehicle were all familiar faces: Mu Wu, Yang Ming, Li Chongjin and Lin Xian!

  They were worried about the whereabouts of Ling Xiao and Jin Yan, it had been three days, they didn't see them return to the base, don't know what happened to them.

  And what's more, three days ago the news of the strongest storm in history turning C Town into a lake reached Flame Team. The four were shocked and quickly prepared their search equipment to rush to C Town.

  Zi Xiao Xuan, Jin Yan, may you be safe and sound!

  Otherwise, it would be a loss for Huoyan Zhandui and the entire Canglang Mercenary Corps!
